The Jamaica Dogsled Team is teaming up with the Emmy award-winning reality competition show DESIGN SQUAD! DESIGN SQUAD on PBS (pbs.org/designsquad) features two teams of three aspiring college-aged engineers, led by 20-something host, inventor and mechanical engineer Nate Ball, as they work on a design project. We asked the cast to design and build snow sled rigs for dryland training that can be used on grass, but feel like they are running on snow. The two designs built by Design Squad's competing teams will be tested and judged by Jamaica Dogsled Team members Newton Marshall and Damion Robb, and the winning rig will be used in the team's summer practice sessions to help them prepare for winter competitions.
The episode will air soon on PBS - keep checking back here for more information!!
